The mri was to check if no gallstones were in bile duck - I didn’t expect the results to come back so fast - last time it took 2 weeks. Could it be bad ?

I have a life limiting condition. When j have CTs there's usually a surgeon 'watching' in real time. I've been in theatre in well under an hour a couple of times.
With blood tests or a scan a GP wanting a chat wouldn't raise an eyebrow. I often get calls as soon as they get results to go to A&E to be admitted. Yes, yours sounds a bit quicker but they move really fast when they need to.

Thank you @ValentinesGranny - they told me to get an appointment but the earliest is not before the 05/03 - I’ll try to call and see the gp earlier

He could have easily seen you the same day. My GP is awful for routine appointments, but emergent serious conditions are seen ASAP, not in three weeks.

Yes it’s true
